Financial Management & Strategic Reporting

Are you an experienced finance professional with strong accounting knowledge, commercial judgement, and the ability to independently manage finance workstreams? Do you have experience coordinating financial operations, supporting decision-making, guiding junior team members, and ensuring accurate and timely delivery?

Our client is seeking a Finance Officer to independently deliver defined Finance workstreams, coordinate day-to-day inputs and raise the quality and reliability of execution while preparing for broader account or functional leadership.

  • Support monthly payroll preparation, statutory deductions and employee-related schedules while maintaining strict confidentiality.
  • Prepare and maintain schedules for VAT, withholding tax, PAYE, pension and other applicable statutory obligations; coordinate accurate and timely filings/payment with approved advisers where required.
  • Produce monthly management accounts and decision-useful analysis covering revenue, costs, cash, debtors, creditors, budget variance and project/account profitability.
  • Track project budgets, commitments, vendor costs, timesheets and margins; flag scope, cost or billing risks to account and business leads early.
  • Coordinate defined workstreams, quality-check associate outputs and keep the manager informed of delivery, budget and stakeholder risks.
  • Coach associates, document useful knowledge and contribute practical ideas that improve quality, speed or commercial value.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Bachelor’s degree or HND in Accounting, Finance or a related discipline; ICAN/ACCA qualification or active professional progression is advantageous.
  • Typically 3–5 years’ relevant experience with evidence of independently delivering substantial workstreams in a multi-client, project or commercial environment.
  • Strong working command of the function’s core tools and processes, with sound judgement, clear client-ready communication and emerging leadership capability.

Skills & Competencies

  • Integrity, confidentiality and professional scepticism.
  • Numerical accuracy and disciplined record keeping.
  • Cash-flow awareness and commercial judgement.
  • Clear communication, follow-through and constructive challenge.
  • Prioritisation, problem solving and respect for approval controls.
  • Workstream leadership, coaching and quality assurance.

Key Performance Indicators

  • Delivery contribution to accuracy and timeliness of monthly accounts and reconciliations.
  • Delivery contribution to invoice issuance and debtor-collection cycle.
  • Delivery contribution to cash-flow forecast accuracy and reporting timeliness.
  • Delivery contribution to statutory filing/payment compliance and absence of avoidable penalties.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
